devices connected to the mobile port, make certain that Rugged BOSS SSD is receiving power from its
power supply unit.

USB Type A port
You can also connect your mobile device to Rugged BOSS SSD’s USB Type A port. The Type A port delivers
1.5A for Lightning and USB-C connections and 900mA for Micro-USB connections.
Slow charging
A “Charging slowly” message on your mobile device means it does not support Charging Downstream Port
(CDP). Because Rugged BOSS SSD does not support Dedicated Charging Port (DCP) over a USB Type A
connection, your mobile device will charge at the slower Standard Downstream Port (SDP) speed of 500mA.
Connect your mobile device to Rugged BOSS SSD’s mobile port for faster charging.
